Abstract

Cu/ZnO/MCM-41 catalyst was prepared via a double-solvent impregnation method, and its catalytic performance of CO$_{2}$ hydrogenation to methanol was investigated. The water-ethylene glycol double solvent formed by adding an appropriate amount of ethylene glycol to the metal nitrate aqueous solution in the impregnation process promoted metal ions into the channels of MCM-41 support, resulting in the formation of metal particles with very small size. Metal particles were uniformly embedded in MCM-41 channels. The relatively low reduction temperature indicated highly dispersed active sites with strong interaction between Cu and ZnO. Cu/ZnO/MCM-41 catalysts prepared with the method had stable catalytic performance in hydrogenation of CO$_{2}$ to methanol. By adjusting loading to control the particle size of Cu, the methanol selectivity and yield could reach 64.3% and 32.8 g$\cdot$(kgcat)$^{-1 }\cdot$h$^{-1}$. Therefore the double-solvent impregnation method can effectively limit migration and sintering of active components with optimized particle size, so as to obtain catalysts with highly dispersed active sites and stable catalytic performance.
